Embodiment Construction
FIG. 1 illustrates one embodiment of present invention 10. Also illustrated in FIG. 1 are various embodiments of functional elements of invention 10 including the following: Vacuum generator 12 is a device similar to the top surface of a cambered wing that causes the impinging wind flow to accelerate thus forming a relatively lower static air pressure than the ambient static air pressure of the wind flowing around and past invention 10. This pressure differential is exploited by invention 10 so as to extract kinetic energy from the wind and convert it to usable mechanical or electrical energy. Intake collector 26 is a device that collects and supplies a preferable positive relative static pressure air supply to energy converter 28 and ultimately to vacuum outlet 16. Energy converter 28 consists generally of a turbine driven by airflow supplied by intake collector 26 and airflow drawn by vacuum produced primarily by vacuum generator 12. Intake channel 30, such as a pipe, conveys the ...
